Health insurance gap after a layoff

My employer coverage ended at the end of the month and I am trying to work out what to do as a procurement assistant. This is my first time dealing with any of this. I think my income this year might qualify for a subsidy. How fast did coverage start?

A free navigator at a community health centre walked me through my options. It took an hour and saved me a lot of guessing.

Call your pharmacy too. Mine knew of a discount card that helped while coverage was being sorted out.
